Résumé
This book was originally published in 1999. Commentators on immigration, cultural diversity and ethnic confict often speak in passing of the 'politics of belonging', but it is rare to find a concerted exploration of this theme. However, the 'politics of belonging' should be taken as a distinct and important approach to the study of migrant and minority politics in contemporary Europe. Bringing together important new research on these questions by young scholars from Europe and North America - many presenting PhD work to English readers for the first time -this volume aims to fill this mimssing area in current research.
